I climbed down into the entrance of the cave and continued to climb down the hypogene passage for about 50ft of depth until it came to a standing room.

There were additional leads spotted with the drone and future trips will take place to continue the search for caves within this area.
I am anticipating that one day, another large cave will be found within this area and will be documented accordingly.
Until than, the search will continue.
